Tunnels are among the main components of transport infrastructure systems and as such must be protected against damage. As damage is particularly prevalent in cold climates, this research investigates tunnels in Gangwon Province (the coldest region of South Korea). Herein, the temperatures inside three tunnels, specifically, one short tunnel and two medium-length tunnels, were measured during the winter season using i-button sensors installed on the surface of the tunnel lining at a height of 2 m from the ground. The long-term temperature data as measured in this way were analyzed, indicating that January showed the lowest temperature compared to those in November, December, February, and March. Moreover, the minimum and maximum daily temperatures of air mostly frequently appeared during 3 to 6 AM and 2 to 4 PM, respectively. Also, the highest temperature gradient occurred at a position of 30 m from the entrance or exits. The temperatures inside the tunnels were significantly affected by the external wind, which was induced by the vehicle traffic volume compared to the natural wind direction, the wind velocity, or the presence of rainfall. Hence, tunnel damage caused by frost heaves and freeze-thaw action can be reduced by frequent inspection and evaluations.
隧道是交通基础设施系统的主要组成部分之一,因此必须加以保护,以免受到破坏。由于破坏在寒冷气候中特别普遍,本研究调查了江原道(韩国最冷的地区)的隧道。本文利用安装在隧道衬砌表面距离地面2 m处的i型按钮传感器,在冬季测量了三条隧道内的温度,其中一条为短隧道,另两条为中隧道。分析了用这种方法测得的长期温度数据,发现1月份的温度比11月、12月、2月和3月最低。日最低气温和最高气温分别出现在上午3 ~ 6点和下午2 ~ 4点。温度梯度最大的位置出现在离出入口30m处。与自然风向、风速或降雨量相比,外部风对隧道内的温度有显著影响,这是由车辆交通量引起的。因此,通过频繁的检查和评估,可以减少冻胀和冻融作用对隧道的破坏。

Existing earthquake damage reconnaissance reports indicate that many tunnels have suffered noticeable damage. During seismic excitation, ignoring the rock-concrete interaction may affect the accuracy of research results. In this study, the influence of rock-concrete interaction on the response behavior of a tunnel under seismic excitation was systemically investigated. A finite difference method (FDM) model of the tunnel and the full dynamic time history calculation technique were conducted. The rock-tunnel interface was built by the FDM and the interface element was defined by a linear Coulomb shear-strength criterion. The reliability of the numerical simulation of the interface was verified by comparing the numerical and direct shear test results. Based on a real engineering case, the Xianglushan water conveyance tunnel, two models with different rock-tunnel interaction treatments were established, and their seismic response were discussed. In addition, the mechanical properties of the interface were comparatively discussed. The tunnel seismic response behaviors were discussed in terms of displacements, stresses and lining dynamic internal forces. The results indicate that the presence of the rock-concrete interaction may have a significant effect on the seismic response of the tunnel, and the influence has a certain pattern. Furthermore, the influences of the mechanical parameters of the interface upon the seismic response of tunnels are complex, and the stiffness of the interface plays a significant role.
现有的地震破坏侦察报告表明,许多隧道遭受了明显的破坏。在地震激励过程中,忽略岩石-混凝土相互作用可能会影响研究结果的准确性。本文系统地研究了岩石-混凝土相互作用对地震作用下隧道响应特性的影响。建立了隧道的有限差分模型和全动力时程计算技术。采用FDM方法建立岩洞界面,采用线性库仑剪切强度准则定义界面单元。通过数值与直剪试验结果的对比,验证了数值模拟界面的可靠性。结合相庐山输水隧道的实际工程实例,建立了两种不同岩洞相互作用处理的模型,并对其地震响应进行了讨论。此外,还对界面力学性能进行了比较讨论。从位移、应力和衬砌动力内力三个方面讨论了隧道的地震反应特性。结果表明,岩石-混凝土相互作用的存在对隧道的地震反应有显著影响,且这种影响具有一定的规律性。此外,界面力学参数对隧道地震反应的影响是复杂的,其中界面刚度起着重要的作用。

The main objective of this paper was to compare standard penetration test (SPT), dynamic probing (DP) and cone penetrometer test (CPT) data for uniformly graded sandy soils located in southeast Brazilian coastal region named Grande Vitória, Espírito Santo (GV-ES). The study also evaluates previously published datasets of laboratory and field penetration tests data concerning the variations of some soil parameters associated with the investigated correlations. The correlations analysis addressed the influences of textural characteristics, especially grain size distribution, and relative density on obtained CPT-SPT and DP-SPT linear correlations using a newly compiled experimental database for GV-ES sands and previous published datasets. Correlations were determined using statistical inference, specifically by simple linear regression and residues’ analysis in several groups of experimental data.

A solar power tower plant includes a solar tower and tens of thousands of heliostats, where the latter accounts for 40–50% of the total cost. To reduce heliostat costs, a new type of heliostat support structure that consists of a pre-stressed high-strength concrete (PHC) pipe pile and cast-in-place concrete is proposed. However, the performance and applicability of this structure are unknown. Thus, this paper reports full-scale field load testing of the proposed heliostat support structure on coarse gravel as subject to lateral loads or torsion-lateral combined loads. The results indicate that the lateral load amplifies the rotation under torque, and the proposed support structure for mirror arrays can provide sufficient rigidity to limit structural deformations within tolerable values under severe wind loading. Together with 3D modeling, the performance of the proposed heliostat support structure is thoroughly investigated to facilitate the development of modified prediction methods for its lateral and torsional load responses. A detailed design procedure is proposed for the new structure that considers foundation deformations, bearing capacity, and survival requirements. Finally, this study proves the applicability of the proposed heliostat support structure to improve the economic performance of solar power tower plants.
塔式太阳能电站包括一个太阳能塔和数以万计的定日镜,其中定日镜占总成本的40-50%。为了降低定日镜的成本,提出了一种由预应力高强混凝土管桩和现浇混凝土组成的新型定日镜支撑结构。然而,这种结构的性能和适用性是未知的。因此,本文报道了所提出的定日镜支撑结构在粗砾石上受侧向载荷或扭转-侧向联合载荷的全尺寸现场载荷试验。结果表明,侧向载荷放大了转矩作用下的旋转,所提出的反射镜阵列支撑结构可以提供足够的刚度,在强风荷载下将结构变形限制在可容忍范围内。结合三维建模,深入研究了定日镜支撑结构的性能,以促进其横向和扭转载荷响应的改进预测方法的发展。提出了考虑基础变形、承载力和生存要求的新结构的详细设计程序。最后,验证了所提出的定日镜支撑结构对提高塔式太阳能电站经济性能的适用性。

A method for estimation of nonlinear, time-dependent settlement of piled raft foundations (PRFs) embedded in saturated clayey soils subjected to uniformly distributed load under the single drainage condition is developed. Twenty different rectangular PRFs resting on four different types of normally consolidated to moderately overconsolidated clays (Overconsolidation ratio, OCR = 1, 2, and 5) are analyzed to quantify their short- and long-term settlements. Rigorous three-dimensional, elasto-plastic finite element (FE) analyses are performed with the critical state-based Modified Cam Clay (MCC) soil constitutive model. The coupled consolidation theory of Biot is used to model the time-dependent dissipation of excess pore pressure under the single drainage condition. The FE analysis results are used to systematically investigate the influence of time and various soil and PRF parameters on the settlement response of piled rafts. Based on the study, fitted equations are developed correlating PRF settlements and degree of consolidation with various influencing parameters. The proposed equations can predict with reasonable accuracy the immediate and primary consolidation settlement as well as the degree of consolidation, and can be used at the initial design stages.
提出了一种在单一排水条件下均布荷载作用下饱和粘性土中桩筏基础非线性时变沉降的估计方法。本文分析了基于四种不同类型的正常固结至中度超固结粘土(超固结比,OCR = 1、2和5)的20种不同矩形PRFs,以量化其短期和长期沉降。采用基于临界状态的改性Cam Clay (MCC)土本构模型进行了严格的三维弹塑性有限元分析。采用Biot的耦合固结理论,模拟了单排水条件下超孔隙压力随时间的耗散。利用有限元分析结果系统地研究了时间、各种土体参数和PRF参数对桩筏沉降响应的影响。在此基础上,建立了PRF沉降和固结程度与各种影响参数的拟合方程。该方程能较准确地预测土体的初固结沉降及固结程度,可用于初始设计阶段。

The application of inspection and monitoring in the reduction of risk for mine tailings dams 检查监测在矿山尾矿坝风险降低中的应用

The recent high-profile failures of mine tailings dams across the globe have once again raised geotechnical interest in these structures. Much of the recent discussion in the technical press has concerned the prediction of ultimate stress state and thus of the failure potential of the tailings materials. The concentration solely on geomechanical properties is important in the understanding of the fundamental characteristics of extractive waste but limits the appraisal of risk potential in these complex and multifaceted structures. It is evident from the author's study of failures of these extractive waste facilities over a period of some 50 years that knowledge of geomechanical properties alone would not have prevented disasters in many instances. The paper reviews the fundamental risks posed by these structures with respect not only to their design but to their construction, operation and eventual closure. The analysis confirms that other crucial elements of their design and construction, if neglected, potentially pose higher risks than a lack of knowledge of geomechanics alone. The paper presents a broad list of risk reduction criteria which should be applied to mine tailings dams, and cites examples of where and how such neglect has resulted in the recent high-profile failures. The paper concludes with a review of general risk reduction criteria and compares these with existing standards and guidelines.
最近全球范围内备受瞩目的尾矿坝溃坝事件再次引起了人们对这些结构的岩土工程兴趣。最近技术报刊上的许多讨论都是关于预测尾矿材料的极限应力状态,从而预测尾矿材料的破坏潜力。仅关注地质力学性质对于理解采掘废物的基本特征很重要,但限制了对这些复杂和多方面结构的潜在风险的评估。从作者对这些采掘废物设施在大约50年期间的失败进行的研究中可以明显看出,在许多情况下,仅凭地质力学特性的知识并不能防止灾难的发生。本文回顾了这些结构所构成的基本风险,不仅涉及它们的设计,而且涉及它们的建造、运营和最终关闭。分析证实,如果忽视其设计和建造的其他关键因素,可能会比仅仅缺乏地质力学知识带来更大的风险。本文提出了一份应适用于矿山尾矿坝的降低风险标准的广泛清单,并举例说明了这种忽视在哪里以及如何导致最近引人注目的失败。本文最后回顾了一般的风险降低标准,并将其与现有的标准和指南进行了比较。

We present a case study that evaluates the seismic performance of a centerline tailings dam in the South American Andes through dynamic effective stress analyses with advanced constitutive models. The seismic demand at the dam site was evaluated through a probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA), which derived in deterministic and probabilistic-based seismic design criteria. The PSHA results were used to select spectrally matched ground motions for the subsequent dynamic analyses. The centerline tailings dam is planned to be raised in stages to 90 m high, which was considered in establishing the initial stresses and pore pressures before seismic loading. The material properties were based on a large geotechnical characterization program considering the mine tailings to be stored in the deposit and other critical dam components. The dynamic analyses were performed using the UBCHYST constitutive model for materials that are not expected to generate significant excess pore pressures and the PM4Silt constitutive model for the materials that may generate excess pore pressures due to cyclic loading. The results show the deformation patterns in the centerline dam, after the seismic loading, are significantly affected by the mine tailings presence. The results are useful to plan the overall operational management of the tailings facility.
我们提出了一个案例研究,通过动态有效应力分析和先进的本构模型来评估南美洲安第斯山脉中心线尾矿坝的抗震性能。通过概率地震危险性分析(PSHA)对坝址的地震需求进行了评估,并推导出确定性和基于概率的地震设计准则。PSHA结果用于选择频谱匹配的地面运动,用于随后的动力学分析。在建立地震加载前的初始应力和孔隙压力时,考虑了中心线尾矿坝计划分阶段抬升至90 m高。材料的性质是基于一个大型岩土工程表征程序,考虑了储存在矿床中的矿山尾矿和其他关键的水坝组成部分。动态分析使用UBCHYST本构模型对不会产生显著超孔隙压力的材料进行分析,使用pm4淤泥本构模型对由于循环加载可能产生超孔隙压力的材料进行分析。结果表明:在地震荷载作用下,尾矿的存在对中心线坝体的变形规律有显著影响。研究结果可为尾矿设施的整体运行管理规划提供参考。

The analysis of time-dependent variation in the axial capacity of the driven pile is difficult yet critical for geotechnical engineers. To investigate the short-term evolution of bearing capacity of driven piles, a two-dimensional finite element (FE) model is developed using ABAQUS program. The pile installation, soil consolidation and loading are incorporated in an integrated FE model. Changes in excess pore pressure and void ratio of surrounding soil are investigated to evaluate the consolidation mechanism. The findings reveal that the excess pore water pressure dissipated is the primary cause of short-term pile bearing capacity evolution. Excess pore water pressure is dissipated, lowering the void ratio and increasing the strength and stiffness of surrounding soil. The effect of the permeability coefficient is also discussed. The permeability coefficient affects the rate of evolution but does not affect its magnitude. A centrifuge model test is used to verify the numerical results. The findings of this study may serve as a guide for improved design and construction of driven piles.
打入桩轴向承载力随时间变化的分析是岩土工程的难点和难点。为研究打入桩承载力的短期演化规律,利用ABAQUS软件建立了打入桩的二维有限元模型。桩的安装、土的固结和荷载在一个综合有限元模型中。研究了周边土体超孔隙压力和孔隙比的变化规律,探讨了固结机理。研究结果表明,超孔隙水压力的耗散是短期桩承载力演化的主要原因。超孔隙水压力消散,孔隙率降低,周围土体强度和刚度提高。还讨论了渗透系数的影响。渗透率系数影响演化速率,但不影响演化幅度。用离心模型试验对数值结果进行了验证。研究结果可为钻孔灌注桩的改进设计和施工提供指导。
